Birthday Banner

I love this banner!! I made mine out of felt. I got my inspiration here.

I made my triangles 5" wide and 7" long.
Then I printed off the letters I wanted and pinned them to the color of felt I wanted and cut, cut, cut.

The white circle behind I traced from a cookie cutter an used my pinking shears.


 I also chose to hand-sew the letters to the white circle. Then used my sewing machine to attach that to the triangle.

The trianges would be attached by bias tape. I overlapped the trianges by 1/2 inch and sewed them togher

Attachign the bias tape was a cinch. Open up the tape and sew right on the line. Then fold over.

I used ribbon for the hook. I cut mine 5 inches long and attached it will hot glue before folding over the bias tape.




All done! I love it!
